Put the Fun Back In Erectile Dysfunction

Other scripts have followed this storyline: two long-time buddies share a hooker only to find out that the results werent as sexually rewarding as originally hoped. In them, one of three things typically happens: (1) the hooker dies; (2) the hooker dies, leading one friend to kill the other because he wanted to tell the cops the truth; (3) the hooker only looks dead really shes going to come back from the brink to kill the two friends, take their money, and then send an anonymous letter to each of their wives  letting them know that they admitted their love to one another in Vegas and were never coming home again.

But let me clarify this: None of that happens in Viagra Falls. No way. While this play shares that basic, original premise, it does so in a friendly, Old Hollywood kind of way. Oh! And it adds in the elderly (insert dirty Parkinsons/hand job joke here), erectile dysfunction, little blue pills, and a friendly, Threes Company-type of call girl -- the kind that youd pay just to pat your hand while you vent about your days trials, not a trashy hooker named Destiny who reeks of Shalimar. See what all the build-up is about during Viagra Falls opening weekend at Hollywood Playhouse (2640 Washington St., Hollywood). The show runs through the end of April. Tickets cost $38.

Thursdays-Sundays. Starts: Jan. 18. Continues through April 30, 2008
